The Future of Skin Regeneration
Silk is nature’s most powerful healing ingredient for visibly rejuvenated, healthier and luminous skin. Silk is known as a luxurious fabric but it is actually a highly regenerative and complex protein.
THIS IS SILK is an award-winning silk skincare brand harnessing the unique power of silk to regenerate skin whilst actively enhancing skin health, feel and appearance. Silk is so powerfully regenerative, it is used in cutting-edge heart tissue, nerve and eye repair surgeries. The effects of silk on skin are radically transformative, yet safe.
Powered by SF-VII®, the first silk peptide technology developed by a global leader in cell tissue repair and cellular renewal, THIS IS SILK is uncompromising in its mission to offer science-backed and visibly effective skincare that is a pleasure to use.
“Honoured to bring silk - this miraculous peptide at the cutting-edge of medical innovation - into skincare”
- Sonal Keay, Founder
SF-VII Silk Peptide Technology
Developed by a global leader and Professor of Cellular Regeneration, SF-VII is cutting edge silk peptide technology, proven to significantly accelerate skin’s own collagen synthesis whilst enhancing skin cell longevity. Collagen is the key to healthy, firm and fresh looking skin, but collagen levels decline as we age.
SF-VII stimulates collagen synthesis, leading to rejuvenated-looking, firmer and fresher skin.
Unlike retinol, which accelerates collagen production whilst damaging the top layer of skin, SF-VII accelerates collagen production whilst enhancing the health and longevity of skin cells.
The Future of Skin Regeneration
Silk is proven to activate and accelerate the skin’s own regenerative and healing processes, powerfully yet safely.
Silk is recognised by the body - we share 90% of the same amino acids.
The first documented use of silk for wound healing was by physicians in Ancient Greece, and as testament to how receptive the human body is to silk’s regenerative and healing powers, silk is currently used in cutting-edge heart tissue, eye and nerve repair surgery.
Silk protects and repairs skin, enhancing its health, resilience and appearance.
A True Alternative to Retinol
Retinol isn’t for everyone. SF-VII is.
The Founder of THIS IS SILK cannot tolerate the side-effects of retinol, which can cause skin damage, irritation and sensitivity to sunlight.
The key to skin health and appearance is collagen, which depletes as we age. A loss of collagen results in drier, thinner and less resilient skin with fine lines and wrinkles. Retinol accelerates the synthesis of collagen but in a way that is too fast for the skin, leading to
damage, irritation and photosensitivity.
SF-VII was developed by a global leader in cellular regeneration and has been proven to accelerate the synthesis of skin’s collagen levels whilst actively enhancing skin health and appearance.
The result is skin rejuvenation and radiance, with no damage and no downtime.
